How do them boots taste, peon?

The only thing I think it might be relevant for is coding really

It’s honestly not very good for that either. Any code it generates tends to either just not work or be really inefficient and insecure.

At best, you could use code to give a basic summary on what the code you’re looking at does and us it to spot potential bugs. But you should only treat it as a bug report where it’s a starting point on manually finding a fix. Don’t let an LLM do bugfixes on its own because it’ll most likely make several more bugs in the process

Using violence as a deterrent teaches kids that it’s OK to use violence against others in the future.

Except as others have pointed out, there’s cases where a violent response (or the possibility of one) is necessary. There’s a couple of good adages on the subject:

It’s better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war

A man that is incapable of fighting isn’t peaceful, he’s helpless

And like one of the other responders, I was spanked as a child but that didn’t lead me to resolving problems with violence as an adult.

I never once threatened violence or used any sort of violence against my kids, and they never used violence as they grew up.

Tbh, that sounds more like they were fortunate enough to never be in a situation that required violence

Especially if there’s a clear stating of “if you continue doing [bad behavior] you’re going to be spanked” and the kid keeps doing it.

When I was a kid, I got warnings before getting spanked. If there’s a clear line drawn and you continue crossing it you should get some kind of punishment.

That being said, I view spanking as the nuclear option nowadays. It needs to be a “credible threat” (aka an actual option), but you want to avoid escalating to that point because there’s nothing else to escalate to.

Remember that their generation were the same ones who beat black protestors and spit on drafted Vietnam vets. They’re also going to die off soon and the world will be better without them

Lawn grass is an invasive species in the Americas and should be removed whenever possible

It’s time to play “Is this Fascism or Bad Sarcasm?”!

Sony swore it would end PS5 discs…

I have a TrackIR for American Truck Sim, and I’ve just not played it since switchinf to Linux. I’m waiting for the Steam Frame ro release so I can switch to that

No.

But that doesn’t give them as much control so they don’t want to do it

It’s bonkers that English Linux marketshare is >8%

Doubt it. English-only Linux marketshare has stayed constant this month, while Chinese Windows marketshare spiked

but I get constant video recommendations on YouTube from Tech Bros telling me to install this thing, and then 90% of Lemmy hate it,

It’s run by a fascist. That’s why the techbros like it and Lemmy hates it.

Don’t forget how they installed rootkits onto all their customers’ computers back in the 00’s via albums

I was somehow counting profile photos as posts, deciding they got no interaction, then deleting everyone’s profile photos. I fixed it, of course, but that isn’t something admins should have to handle from scratch, by hand, on every server

Since you already put in the work do develop the script, have you considered upstreaming it and/or releasing publicly? It’d help other server admins

Chinese New Years. A lot of people get time off in China around that time, so gaming cafes see a large spike in traffic. Each of the customer sessions have a chance of being counted in the survey, and they pretty much all run Windows, giving windows a matching spike in userbase in the same time window

Ubisoft have been lazy cunts for the past several years. This post just further proves it

They’re like the flat Earthers that actually try experiments that end up proving themselves wrong, yet they continue denying it afterwards

You clearly don’t understand what an analogy is.

Maybe if you’d stop using AI for all mental activities you’d fucking understand that
